Workshops - Helping Community Cats
Feral Cats are outdoor cats that are otherwise healthy but unsocialized to humans and therefore unadoptable as pets. These workshops will provide information on how to create a safety net for them and stop the cycle of breeding with Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) - the only recognized humane and effective method of reducing their populations.
Information will be given on building inexpensive shelters and a short video presentation will give a step-by-step guide for how to help cats. You'll learn how to humanely trap outdoor cats and be given instructions on how to safely deter cats from where they are not wanted. Join us to network and meet others who are helping cats.
